The last to appear was Bazel. But strangely, Ivanor Adam's Paladin Titan did not cancel its transformation. Instead, it paced slowly to the side, its hooves occasionally scraping the ground.
Yago looked at the squint-eyed man below the stage and straightened up in his seat. His instincts told him that this seemingly harmless guy was more threatening than the previous two.
Under everyone's gaze, Bazel suddenly plopped down onto the ground. He even reached out and patted the muddy earth.
"Pretty comfortable," Bazel said with satisfaction.
Then he simply lay down, wearing a relaxed expression.
"What is he doing?"
The Marleyan officers on the platform were stunned by this scene. Why was he lying down? Was he actually going to sleep?
Even Commander Magath frowned and lowered his head to look at the docunts in his hand.
But at that mont, a sudden change occurred.
Golden lightning exploded outward, instantly wrapping around Bazel's body.
However, unlike the others—unlike any Titan transformation before—Bazel's golden lightning did not form a pillar of light, nor did it create a skeletal fra or flesh.
Instead, the golden lightning spread outward from Bazel like ripples from a center point, diffusing across the surrounding earth and forming a curtain of lightning on the ground.
While everyone was still shocked and uncertain, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently.
The earth shook and the sky seed to sway. Even the platform where Yago sat started to shake.
Boom! Boom! Crack! Crack!
The dull sounds of rocks splitting apart rang out continuously.
A Marleyan officer pointed at the ground in shock and shouted,
"There's sothing! Sothing is coming out of the ground!!"
A colossal figure slowly pushed up through the earth.
Soil and shattered rocks slid down from its body, dust flying everywhere. Amid the swirling dust, only those crimson eyes were clearly visible.
Gradually, the chaos subsided.
The Marleyan officers, who had been in disarray monts ago, cald down. As the dust slowly dispersed, they all stared wide-eyed at the enormous creature before them.
Yago slowly raised his head.
The gigantic body stood before the platform, completely blocking out the sun.
Magath also lowered the docunts in his hand and looked at the figure, speaking its na.
"The Fortress Titan!"
The Fortress Titan—just like its na suggested.
From appearance alone, it was almost impossible to tell that it was a Titan. It looked more like a gigantic fortress made of countless dark gemstones. Under the sunlight, its entire body emitted a dim, heavy glow.
From head to toe, its height reached a terrifying thirty ters.
So Marleyan officers even exclaid,
"Our Colossal Titan has returned!"
Boom! Boom!
The Fortress Titan rely shifted its feet slightly, yet the earth roared in response.
Of course, its movents were extrely slow. Just turning its body took more than ten seconds.
The way the Fortress Titan displayed its power was also very special.
Not far away, several anti-Titan cannons that the Marleyans had captured were already aid directly at it.
Reiner's expression turned serious.
Those anti-Titan cannons were practically the natural enemy of his Armored Titan. Even the shield he condensed with all his strength could withstand at most three shots. This weapon had been specifically developed to counter Titans.
"Fire!"
With a command given—
Boom! Boom!
The sound of cannons rang out continuously as dozens of shells flew straight toward the Fortress Titan.
With such a dense barrage, if Reiner's Armored Titan had been there, the outco would likely have been disastrous.
But the next scene made Reiner's eyes widen.
The shells designed specifically to kill Titans struck the Fortress Titan's body—yet they didn't even leave a dent.
There was only a dull sound and a few sparks bursting from its surface.
And then… nothing.
Dozens of shells hitting the Fortress Titan felt no different from scratching an itch.
Reiner even stood up in shock.
It seed that the title of Marley's Shield would no longer belong to him after today.
Yago looked at the Fortress Titan being bombarded relentlessly, and his heart skipped a beat.
Such hardness—Thunder Spear probably wouldn't be able to damage this Titan either.
What about the nape?
Yago looked carefully, but what he saw left him confused.
This Titan looked like a living mass of stone. Its Titan form was almost impossible to distinguish. If it weren't for those crimson eyes, Yago wouldn't even have noticed it had a head.
The Fortress Titan's head was almost fused into its body.
It didn't even have a neck.
So where would the nape be?
"Although it's extrely tough, with that kind of speed, what can you do besides act as a target to attract enemy fire?"
The Fortress Titan's weakness was extrely obvious.
Its movent was simply too slow.
It was probably not even half as fast as the Colossal Titan.
So was the Fortress Titan really just a "fortress" ant to draw enemy fire?
Wait!
Yago suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
He looked toward the Paladin Titan nearby—the one that had been scraping its hooves against the ground the whole ti.
That thing had been waiting there all along.
Could it be…?
After the cannon fire stopped, although people were astonished by the Fortress Titan's defensive power, so—like Yago—had already noticed its weakness.
Soon, the Paladin Titan that had been pacing answered their question.
The Paladin Titan walked behind the Fortress Titan and wrapped its upper body around it.
"ROAR!!"
With a furious roar, the Fortress Titan's body suddenly began to twist and deform.
The gem-like blocks that ford its body actually started rging with the Paladin Titan.
Crack! Crack!
They fused and condensed together.
Very quickly, an even more ferocious giant appeared before everyone.
Like a knight clad in heavy armor.
The Fortress Titan had essentially transford into a massive suit of armor fused onto the Paladin Titan.
Of course, it wasn't a complete fusion.
Most of the Fortress Titan's body condensed into a massive pointed war hamr.
So the scene now was this:
A twenty-ter-tall Paladin Titan covered in Fortress Titan armor, holding a gigantic heavy hamr ford from the Fortress Titan itself—
Like a war chariot from ancient epics.
With the Fortress Titan's support, the Paladin Titan imdiately charged toward a nearby hill.
Rumble! Rumble!
The thunderous sound of hooves striking the ground was even more terrifying than before.
And the charge it unleashed brought even greater despair to any enemy.
Magath's eyes widened in shock as he watched with his own eyes—
A small hill was smashed into pieces right before him.
Such terrifying power stunned everyone present.
With strength like this, what fortress could possibly withstand such a charge?
The Middle Easterners were finished.
General Skor took the lead in applauding.
With such a powerful warrior unit, victory would surely belong to Marley!
anwhile, after witnessing the fused Titan shatter the hill with a single charge, Yago's expression beca more serious than ever.
Subconsciously, he touched the small glass bottle hidden in his clothes.
If he wanted to deal with these two Titans…
He would probably have to fuse with the power of the Colossal Titan.
